You Should Know
YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.
Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.
If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.

I'm unemployed and involuntarily vegan for health reasons. Dried mixed beans, brown rice, and frozen vegetables are keeping me alive.
GAS GAS GAS
He barely has to wipe.
Watch out for low-flying brown missiles!
Doesn't the body get used to eating that many beans? Like, Mexicans eat them all the time. Also I eat them as often as I can and I don't think they really affect me that much.
I like to think it has more to do with the dried or dehydrated foods suddenly becoming rehydrated causing a mix of bacterial bloom within the previously barren food and difficulty digesting/passing the food resulting in the carbohydrate fermentation and flatulence as a means of pushing it through, but idk I'm not a butt engineer.
I soak all my own beans and I don't have the issue. As someone else said, it may have to do with our individual gut flora or something.
I heard, from John Ralston Saul of all people, that the trick is to change the water.
Wait until you hear about fruit!
I'm a scientist. Beans are a fruit, of the musical variety.
What happens when you eat them more? As a scientist, that is.
They make you toot.

I miss fruit.
The first week of vegan is brutal. But it gets better.
I've been like this for months. I'm miserable. I'm a vegetarian because I hate animals. I have high blood pressure so I cut out animal fat and booze.
If you hate animals, I don't think you're doing this right.
Cook mushrooms in rice or beans. Add wallnuts. Supposedly walnut and no other but has shown to help lower blood pressure.
not really. Especially if you have access to vegan chick'n nuggies and corn dogs and junk.
The moment you stop eating meat you'll notice just how hard society wants you to chew on dead animals. Your friends, your family, the TV commercials, the radio. They never talk about a juicy mushroom taco. It just Burger this and pork that everywhere you go. That's what I mean by brutal. And its always an inconvenience for the cook to not add dead animal or smear your food with animal milk products.
I was a vegan in the US and now I'm a vegetarian in Japan. Trust me, I know lol.
Smear? What milk products are you thinking of? What came to my mind was cheese (which you could call metan tofu, I suppose...), but I would usually expect cheese to be sprinkled, not smeared.
I love mushroom derived flavors, but eating actual mushrooms, it’s always about texture never the taste
Dollar store spices will help you thrive.
Solid advice, I highly endorse it.
Careful though, they recently recalled dollar store cinnamon because it had lead in it
Dirt is really expensive if you're unemployed. Some herbs and veg are quite happily grown kratky style, but that also comes with its own challenges
